Stretch targetsenergize. We have found that by reaching for what appears to be
the impossible, we often actually do the impossible; and even when we don't
quite make it, we inevitably wind up doing much better than we would have
done.

Les
Brown

Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss,
you'll land among the stars.

Samuel
Johnson

It is a most mortifying
reflection for a man to consider what he has done,
compared to what he might have done.

T.S.
Eliot

Only those who will risk going too far
can possibly find out how far one can go.

The major reason for setting a goal is for what
it makes of you to accomplish it. What it makes of you will always be the
far greater value than what you get.

Helen
Keller

It is for us to pray not for tasks equal to
our powers, but for powers equal to our tasks, to go forward with a
great desire forever beating at the door of our hearts as we travel
toward our distant goal.

William Makepeace Thackeray

Do not be in a hurry to succeed. What
would you have to live for afterwards? Better make the horizon your
goal; it will always be ahead of you.

Stephen Hawking

My goal is simple. It is a complete
understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists
at all.

Chuck
Palahniuk

We all die. The goal isn't to live forever,
the goal is to create something that will.
